		<h2>
			Changes for this release (latest changes first, earliest changes last)
		</h2>
			<ul>
				<li>Updated coreboot (git commit 8ffc085e1affaabbe3dca8ac6a89346b71dfc02e), the latest at the time of writing.</li>
				<li>Updated SeaBIOS (git commit 67d1fbef0f630e1e823f137d1bae7fa5790bcf4e), the latest at the time of writing.</li>
				<li>Updated Flashrom (svn revision 1850), the latest at the time of writing.</li>
				<li>Updated GRUB (git commit 9a67e1ac8e92cd0b7521c75a734fcaf2e58523ad), the latest at the time of writing.</li>
				<li>Cleaned up the documentation, removed unneeded files.</li>
				<li>ec/lenovo/h8 (x60/x60s/x60t/t60): Enable wifi/bluetooth/wwan/touchpad/trackpoint by default.</li>
				<li>Documentation: Updated list of T60 LCD's (Samsung LTN150XG 15&quot; XGA listed as non-working).</li>
				<li>builddeps-coreboot: Don't build libpayload (not needed. This was leftover by mistake, when trying out the TINT payload).</li>
				<li>Replaced most diff files (patches) for coreboot with gerrit checkouts (cherry-pick).</li>
				<li>Documentation: x60_security.html and t60_security.html: added links to info about the ethernet controller (Intel 82573).</li>
				<li>Documentation: x60_security.html and t60_security.html: added notes about DMA and the docking station.</li>
				<li>
					Documentation: configuring_parabola.html: basic post-install steps for Parabola GNU/Linux 
					(helpful, since libreboot development is being moved to Parabola at the time of writing).
				</li>
				<li>builddeps-coreboot: use 'make crossgcc-i386' instead of 'make crossgcc'. Libreboot only targets x86 at the time of writing.</li>
				<li>ROM images no longer include SeaBIOS. Instead, the user adds it afterwards. Documentation and scripts updated.</li>
				<li>docs/images/encrypted_parabola.html: Notes about linux-libre-grsec</li>

			<h2 id="critical_tasks">
				Critical tasks for future release
			</h2>
				<ul>
					<li>
						Fix remaining incompatible LCD panels in native graphics on T60. 
						See <a href="future/index.html#lcd_i945_incompatibility">future/index.html#lcd_i945_incompatibility</a>.
					</li>
					<li>i945: fix VRAM size (currently 8MB. should be 64MB). See <a href="future/index.html#i945_vram_size">future/index.html#i945_vram_size</a>.</li>
					<li>
						Look into those machines:
						<ul>
							<li>
								ThinkPad X200 - uses the same chipset (gm45) as the Roda RK9 which doesn't have ME; it might be optional on the X200. See <a href="http://libreboot.org/x200/">libreboot.org/x200/</a>.
							</li>
							<li>
								ThinkPad X201 - see <a href="http://libreboot.org/x201/">http://libreboot.org/x201/</a>.
							</li>
							<li>
								ThinkPad R400 (needs to be ported to coreboot). Uses the same chipset as the X200.
							</li>
							<li>
								Lenovo g505s - might need video bios and microcode updates. These would have to be removed and/or replaced to be in libreboot
								<a href="https://github.com/alterapraxisptyltd/lenovo-g505s">https://github.com/alterapraxisptyltd/lenovo-g505s</a>.
								It's AMD (not Intel) based on the same design as the HP Pavillion 1035DX. No ME/AMT to worry about!
								<a href"http://www.coreboot.org/User_talk:MrNuke/LTS_Candidates">http://www.coreboot.org/User_talk:MrNuke/LTS_Candidates</a>
								and <a href="http://www.coreboot.org/Board:hp/pavilion_m6_1035dx#Native_graphics_init">http://www.coreboot.org/Board:hp/pavilion_m6_1035dx#Native_graphics_init</a>
							</li>
							<li>
								F2A85-M and E350M1 (libreboot_*_headless.rom). Find cards that work without the VBIOS (load, but not execute).
							</li>
						</ul>
					</li>
				</ul>

		<div class="important">
			<h2 id="noncritical_tasks">
				Other tasks (non-critical, but still important)
			</h2>
				<ul>
					<li>
						Look at vortex86ex boards. See <a href="http://libreboot.org/vortex86ex">http://libreboot.org/vortex86ex</a>.
					</li>
					<li>Adapt linux-libre deblob scripts for use with coreboot. Libreboot is already deblobbed
					using it's own script, but updating it is still a bit too manual. linux-libre's deblob
					scripts do an excellent job and (adapted) will make it much easier to maintain coreboot-libre.</li>
